Group Financial Controller

At Bliksund, we dedicate ourselves to creating mission-critical systems that help emergency and healthcare professionals focus on what really matters – saving lives. Our goal is to create innovative, user-friendly solutions that support emergency workers in both daily operations and during crisis situations.

Backed by Monterro, Bliksund is on an ambitious growth journey with focus on international expansion, product innovation and M&A. As the company grows, it is centralising its finance function and building an in-house capability to replace an over-reliance on external advisors.

About the role

As Group Financial Controller you will help consolidate a multi-entity structure spanning Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden. You will build a controls framework from the ground up and become a key business partner to the CFO.

This is a hands-on role with significant scope to shape. In the near term you will take over day-to-day finance operations from external advisors, own the monthly close and group consolidation, and establish the financial reporting infrastructure that a PE-backed, fast-growing SaaS company requires. Over time you will help build out the finance team and play a central role in the company's continued growth and potential M&A activity.

Responsibilities:

Financial reporting and close

• Own the monthly close across all entities (NO, DK, NL, SE) and produce group management accounts
• Lead group consolidation including intercompany eliminations across legal entities
• Drive variance analysis versus budget and provide actionable commentary

Accounting and controls

• Take over bookkeeping and transactional accounting across all entities
• Implement an internal controls framework, approval matrix and expense governance
• Own accounts payable, accounts receivable and intercompany transactions
• Oversee payroll processing across jurisdictions in collaboration with third party providers
• Maintain the fixed asset register and ensure accurate depreciation
• Support M&A activity and acquisition integration as needed

Treasury and cash management

• Own cash flow forecasting and bank account management across entities
• Monitor covenant compliance under the group loan agreement
• Manage working capital and flag risks to leadership proactively

Tax, compliance and audit

• Prepare VAT filings and corporate tax data across NO, DK and NL in collaboration with third party providers
• Draft statutory accounts and coordinate the annual group audit
• Ensure full regulatory compliance across all jurisdictions

Your profile

• You have five or more years of experience in group finance, financial control or a Big Four background

• You are comfortable with the full finance stack, from bookkeeping to board reporting
• You have worked in or closely with a SaaS or technology company
• You thrive in a hands-on environment where you build things from scratch
